• President Obama: Stop letting Big Banks deduct their settlement payouts from their taxes
    Greedy and criminal Wall Street bankers stole our homes, our savings, and our jobs while destroying our economy. Now that some Big Banks are agreeing to settlements to repay small portions of the destruction they caused, the IRS says they can deduct the cost of those settlements from their taxes. We pay twice and they get away with it! The Administration's top priority should be helping struggling homeowners stay in their homes and avoid foreclosure, not padding the bottom lines of Wall Street barons. Join the Home Defenders League in fighting back against this infuriating practice. (Apologies for the typo in the body of the petition. It should read "Too big to jail".)

  • FEES THE BANK CHARGE
    BANKS CHARGE EXCESSIVE AND HIGHLY ILLEGAL BANK FEES WHEN WE USE OUR ATM CARDS TO WITHDRAW OUR OWN MONEY. BANKS HAVE FEES STACKED AGAINST US AND ARE MAKING A FORTUNE ON OUR MONEY.

  • Wisconsin Does Not Want to Become a Right-to-Work State
    Keep Wisconsin a strong union-friendly state. Right-to-work laws weaken the unions, and it has been known for decades that right-to-work states have lower wages and lesser-quality benefits and a lower standard of living than states with a strong union legacy, such as Wisconsin. You only need to look at the poverty rampant in states like Mississippi, Alabama, and Louisiana, states with strong right-to-work laws, to see how bad right-to-work is for the citizens and the state economies. States like Wisconsin with strong pro-labor histories have higher wages,better benefits, and a higher standard of living for their citizens than their right-to-work counterparts. This is not union propaganda, but established fact. We do not want to follow in the steps of Michigan and have right-to-work rammed down our throats in the dead of night.

  • Cable Television Providers: Allow Professional Sports Licensing Fee Opt-out!
    According to the Wall Street Journal (March 8, 2010), roughly __40%__ of your cable television bill pays for professional sports licensing fees. The NFL's 2011 revenue (a 501(c)(6) non-profit that pays no taxes) was over $9 Billion! If you don't watch professional sports, why pay for it?!

  • BOYCOTT WENDY'S
    WENDY'S has cut back full-time employees to part-time employees to avoid offering their employees HEALTH care. I like WENDY'S cheeseburgers but I plan to stop patronizing them until they treat their workers wth more equity.

  • Bully Bosses get away with discrimination
    Workplace bullying is a problem that is on the rise. Management simply gets away with it, by continuing with harassment ,intimidation and retaliation in many forms.

  • We demand Hobby Lobby obey the law and the AHCA.
    None of us should have the ability to pick-and-choose which laws to obey or not, especially on behalf of others. Hobby Lobby CEO David Green is doing just that by witholding "Obamacare" from all of his employees based on his own religious beliefs. In fact, as such he is actually preventing his employees from exercising their own rights and beliefs, as well as breaking the law. Please support this petition to change that and join me in a full boycott of all Hobby Lobby stores and associated holdings, including Mardel bookstores and Hemispheres furniture stores.

  • We the People Demand Equal Justice for “Too Big to Fail” Banks
    The latest "Too Big to Prosecute" Bank, HSBC (look on the back of your credit cards) has knowingly laundered money from Mexican drug cartels as well as moved funds from sanctioned countries who support terrorists like Iran, Cuba, Sudan and Libya (http://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/2012/December/12-crm-1478.html). The U.S. Department of Justice has found evidence but has deferred prosecution on the company or any person in the company that allowed the illegal activities to transpire. No person or corporation will be prosecuted. This petition will be sent to the U.S. government to remind them that U.S. citizens are paying attending and want corrupt companies and people in corrupt companies to be accountable, not just with a fine, but with prosecution that any other person would be submitted to in this country. If the company is "Too Big to Fail or Prosecute" then break up the company so that it can be accountable like any other corporation or person in this country.

  • Don't like it? Don't go there!
    I never heard a degrading word about other people my years of growing up. What a wonderful sheltered life. Now my grandchildren tell about the anti-bulling concepts they are learning in school. Surely as adults, we can practice some of these concepts. And there is an effective way to do just that.
